Moments in my time

Saturday August 31st 2024 at 11:00 AM - Notes by me Robert/Rob/Bob/Wayne Busby. Those of you who read my stories/notes and view my photographs and collages know I have ups and downs physically and mentally. I'm dealing with all of those ills the best I can day by day. There are days you can't tell there's anything wrong with me and there are days you know something's wrong just by the way I write my stories/notes and post the photographs and collages. Every now and then I get on my soapbox and rant about various topics. Most of the time the rants don't mean anything. I was ticked off at that moment and thought you all needed to know about it. I've Been Told talking about my issues, The Good,The Bad, and even The Ugly are good for me mentally and somehow physically. So occasionally I do discuss strange issues in my life but that's all they are, discussion points. If you don't agree with me, don't worry, most of the time I may not remember the specific topics! My medical care is crazy at times, but it must be helping me because I'm still here at 74 years old going on 75. So the US Army/Department of Defense/Veterans Administration as well as my civilian doctors are doing something right in order to keep me physically and mentally operational. Living my wild and crazy life traveling the world for over 41 years has been exciting and retired life has been even more wild and exciting! However after 74+ years, I look in the mirror and wonder who that is looking back at me. I do not travel as much as I did previously but I do try and stay as active as I can even though that is not easy at times. I have mentioned many times there are days I cannot get out of my chair because of pain/depression or both and there are days I'm just so active I can't believe it. My body tends to let me know really quick when Ive done too much. Another issue I have is something called brain fog so when I sit down and try and write about The Life and Times of me and living my life with a parrot, I tend to lose my train of thought. Brain fog has arrived so I will try and keep writing stories and jotting notes about The Life and Times of me so my family, friends, acquaintances and maybe even family historians can keep up with my life.
